Deep Dive: Our Top Picks
Sliquid Sizzle Warming Lube Glycerine & Paraben FreeBest Overall Choice Our Rating: 4.9/5 Why We Picked ItWe put the Sliquid Sizzle Warming Lube Glycerine & Paraben Free on this list as it is a water-based formula that is comfortable on the skin but comes with an amazingly delicious twist – it is made with food-grade menthol that provides incredible sensations. Once you put the Sliquid Sizzle Warming lube on your skin, you will feel conflicting sensations of warming and cooling, which makes the experience more stimulating and makes the skin more sensitive. It is cooling if you let it dry on the skin, but when you apply friction, it becomes a warning sensation, and this is something that we can’t recommend enough. We love that it is a water-based formula that is easy to clean from the skin and sheets, and it is formulated without glycerin and paraben. What Customers Are Saying
- Great :)
Easy to apply and easy to wash off. Stumbling upon this lube has been the best thing that has ever happened to me. It is not too strong with a great sensation. Would definitely buy it again:) - Charlotte
- High Quality
Really high quality product. Does get good and warm and tingly but not overly strong or irritating. It is easy to wash off after use, and it doesn't have an unpleasant burning feeling. The perfect stuff for older post-menopausal people. Wouldn’t use anything else. - Nellie Reasons to Buy✓ Water-based, food-grade formula ✓ Menthol for cooling and warming sensations ✓ Glycerin and paraben-free ✓ Non-irritating and easy to clean Reasons to Avoid✗ Tends to dry quickly

Wicked Heat Water Based Warming LubricantBest Water-Based warming Lube Our Rating: 4.9/5 Why We Picked ItThe Wicked Heat Water Based Warming Lubricant is our choice for a water-based warming lube, and we love the feeling of the lube on the skin. The formulation is body-safe and comfortable, and it is suitable for all skin types. However, the appeal of why we chose it for our list is that the Wicked Heat Water Based Warming Lubricant contains cinnamon bark, ginger, and red clover extracts that provide a unique warming sensation on the skin. It is also a non-sticky formula that is fragrance- and paraben-free and made from all vegan ingredients. What Customers Are Saying

Wicked Jelle Warming Waterbased Anal Gel Lubricant - 4 ozBest Warming Anal Lube Our Rating: 4.8/5 Why We Picked ItThe Wicked Jelle Warming Waterbased Anal Gel Lubricant is a good choice for an anal lube, but this one also comes with a delicious warming sensation. The warming is a result of the cinnamon bark, ginger, and red clover extracts in a water-based formula. The Wicked Jelle Warming Waterbased Anal Gel Lubricant is also very thick, does not run off, and easily stays on the skin and the toys. We like that it is lightweight and non-staining and is very easy to wash from the skin and toys. We tested it for its intended use as anal lube and found it perfect, but you can also be creative and use it for other applications and play with fire without getting burned. What Customers Are Saying

This is the perfect lube for its purpose. It fulfills all the promises it made in its advertisement. It is super thick not runny or watery like others, it is compatible with all my toys.

Sensuva Sizzle Lips Edible Warming GelBest Edible Warming Gel Our Rating: 4.8/5 Why We Picked ItWe added the Sensuva Sizzle Lips Edible Warming Gel because we found this to be an intriguing formulation – it combines the features of an edible lube and warming gel into one fantastic product. The warming effect is from the tea tree leaf extract, and the more you blow on it, the warmer it gets. Also, the more you rub it, the warmer it gets, which means you can engage in some highly erotic oral sexy playtime and make your partner burn. Also, the formulation is safe to ingest and comes in two sexy flavors. We must note that you should refrain from using it as a personal lube, as it may irritate the vagina. What Customers Are Saying
- Amazing

- Awesome
THIS LUBE IS THE BEST!!!! 😍😍 It doesn't irritate my private area, and it has no chemical smell. The smell and taste are absolutely great. Great buy, I'm delighted! I'd also like to note that it is not difficult to rinse off after. - Christina Reasons to Buy✓ Intense warming sensation ✓ Glycerin-based formula ✓ Natural Pina Colada and Salted Caramel flavors ✓ Perfect for massages and oral play Reasons to Avoid✗ Not for penetrative sex

Melt Warming LubricantBest Flavored Warmning Lube Our Rating: 4.9/5 Why We Picked ItWe included the Melt Warming Lubricant because we love this product. It is a premium water-based edible lube formula that provides a warming sensation on the skin. The warming sensation is the result of the blend of the cinnamon bark extract and ginger root extracts and is supported by plant-derived glycerin. We love that the warming sensation is almost instant and provides a significant increase in the skin’s sensitivity. Also, the Melt Warming Lubricant is compatible with latex condoms as well as with silicone sex toys, which means you can truly enjoy your sexy time with this lube. What Customers Are Saying

Hubby gives me massages with this warming gel for my intense back pains. Works wonderfully. Bought three to make sure we don't run out in case they discontinue it. - Ada
- Works great

Wicked Ultra Heat Warming Sensation Silicone Based Lubricant - 2 oz Fragrance FreeBest Silicone-Based Warming Lube Our Rating: 4.8/5 Why We Picked ItWe had to include a silicone-based lube in our list of warming lubes, and we chose the Wicked Ultra Heat Warming Sensations Silicone Based Lubricant. The formula is silicone-based, which means it will not dry out and will not become sticky but will provide long-term lubricity. The warming sensations are the result of a blend of natural ingredients like cinnamon, clove, lemon, and vanilla bean extracts that provide intense sensations. We love that the formula is vegan, not greasy, not sticky, and is glycerin-free. It is also body-safe and paraben-free, but you must note that it is not compatible with silicone toys; it is only compatible with glass and metal toys. What Customers Are Saying

Not the most warming lube I've had, but definitely effective. I've only been using it with toys, I can only imagine how it would feel like with a partner. Either way, I always have an amazingly good time. Can't recommend it enough! - Cecily
- Enjoyable
I really enjoy how silky smooth the texture of this lube is. So far, it has served me and my boyfriend well. It seems to last forever. I definitely feel the burn more than my boyfriend does, but both of us always end up satisfied. - Hannah Reasons to Buy✓ Intense warming sensations ✓ Long-lasting, paraben-free formula ✓ Silicone-based lube ✓ Plant-based extracts for warming Reasons to Avoid✗ Not compatible with silicone toys

All You Need to Know About Warming Lubes
You need to be careful when selecting any lube, and if the lube offers warming sensations, be prepared to set your nether regions on fire. Please also check out our complete guide on how to use sex lubes and browse our blog for educational content on choosing and using various sex toys. Because you need to be careful with warming lube, here we list the key things to know when selecting a warming personal lubricant:
- Base and body-safe ingredients – we always remind you to check out the lube’s base, whether it is a water or silicone-based type, and also check the ingredients list. We have listed the main harmful ingredients in our guide to lubes, so try to avoid as many of these as you possibly can.
- Warming ingredients – the warming sensation will set your skin on fire – not actual fire, but the sensations are overwhelming, and some may even find these uncomfortable. Still, the warming sensations are achieved by adding cinnamon extract, ginger, menthol, or other body-safe ingredients to the lube, so there is little to worry about here.
- Long-lasting formula – we recommend you get a warming lube that has a long-lasting formula that will not dry out quickly. Also, opt for lubes that won’t become sticky as they dry, as this may be uncomfortable for the skin.
- pH Balance – always buy the lube that has balanced pH levels that are as close to the natural pH of the vagina as possible. You can check the label of the product or the product description, where we try to list as many important details as possible.
The Bottom Line
We added our selections for the best warming lubes that you can find in our sex toy store. Please be careful with your choices and always consider the ingredients of the warming lube so as to avoid possible adverse reactions. Feel free to browse our sex toy store, where you will find all sorts of fantastic sex toys, including vibrators, dildos, male sex toys, anal toys, sexy lingerie, BDSM gear, and so much more.
